Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

There is someone out there who wants your weird little book. Even if you doubt yourself sometimes, don't doubt their earnest enthusiasm.

Sometimes if I let a book lapse on Libby before I finish it and there’s a long wait to renew it. I will just start wherever I left off and hope I remember what just happened.

My friend and I have said we were gonna buddy read Bloodmarked at least seven times this year….I’m startin to think it’s not gonna happen 🤨🤨

Omg there’s a playlist! I love book playlists! We need more of them in contemporary/romances

I hit a reading slump and now I’m slowly watching the days till I have to return my library books go down 😿

The only reason I used KU was for smaller authors but luckily more and more are using other stores. I’ve never used a kobo though.

I am here for the immediate shutdown of any Queen Latifah slander. Couldn't even find the original post for a good five minutes because there are so many people telling the truth (i.e., that Queen Latifah has been a QUEEN forever, and if you can't see what everyone else sees, just go away quietly).

I’ve been super busy so I’ve been listening to a lot of audiobooks and seeing a 20 hour audiobook was so shocking after listening to so many 6-9 hour audiobooks. I can only imagine how thick the physical book is

Apparently all I have to do is post this for it to finally appear on my feed. I was aware Suzanne Collins was still continuing The Hunger Games

My holds for The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri and The Reformatory by Tananarive Due became available at the same time!! I will be putting everything else to finish these

For the amount of people talking about wanting to read it. I still have no idea what sunrise on the reaping is about or what it looks like.

ALSO, if you have a library card, you can read paywall articles for free with the Libby app.
